ABOUT SALESFORCE
Salesforce is the #1 AI CRM, where humans with agents drive customer success together. Here, ambition meets action. Tech meets trust. And innovation isn’t a buzzword — it’s a way of life. The world of work as we know it is changing and we're looking for Trailblazers who are passionate about bettering business and the world through AI, driving innovation, and keeping Salesforce's core values at the heart of it all. Ready to level-up your career at the company leading workforce transformation in the agentic era? You’re in the right place! Agentforce is the future of AI, and you are the future of Salesforce.
ABOUT THE TEAM
The Data Programs & Insights team sits at the heart of Salesforce's product data strategy, owning the operational and governance frameworks that power executive-level financial reporting across our entire product suite. Our team is the authoritative source for the product components of the company Accountability Performance Matrix (APM), the backbone of Salesforce's pipeline, ACV, AOV, and attrition reporting used in every executive review, product strategy discussion, and financial planning cycle. When senior leadership needs to understand how the business is performing, they rely on the data frameworks our team owns and maintains. Salesforce is currently undergoing a major data transformation: modernizing our data foundations to improve data quality, simplify revenue operations processes, rethink how we measure success, and make data available in near real-time across the company. Throughout this scope of work, we serve as the bridge between Product Strategy and Data Engineering — turning complex business needs into scalable data systems while overseeing governance of core product data across the organization. This is a team for people who thrive at the intersection of analytical rigor, operational excellence, and cross-functional influence. Our team has direct visibility into decisions that shape Salesforce's long-term data strategy and a hand in building the future state of how we operate.
OVERVIEW OF THE ROLE
We are looking for an operationally minded, analytical Senior Manager, Data Operations & Governance to lead a function focused on APM Governance. This is a high-impact role sitting at the crossroads of Product Strategy, Data Engineering, Specialized Sales, and Finance. You'll be responsible for the accuracy, day-to-day operations, and long-term governance of Salesforce's master product hierarchy and product allocations framework within the Accountability Performance Matrix (APM). The APM is not background infrastructure — it powers every executive financial review, product strategy discussion, and revenue tracking conversation at Salesforce. As our product portfolio grows and commercial complexity increases, scaling this function has become a strategic priority, and this Senior Manager will be the operational leader driving that work forward. You'll also serve as a key partner to our Data Engineering & Technology (DET) team as we move from a legacy manual system to the automated APM 2.0 framework — an infrastructure upgrade with company-wide impact.
Responsibilities
Master Product Hierarchy & APM Governance
- Own end-to-end APM data governance, including the Product and Industry dimensions, M&A-related data, and downstream impacts to dashboards and reporting tools
- Manage the full lifecycle of a multi-tier APM hierarchy from creation and validation to error resolution, evolving and automating legacy processes and leveraging AI to drive efficiency without sacrificing accuracy
- Partner with DET on custom SQL query updates and with the Finance Data Office (FiDO) to signal readiness for table updates and republishes as new logic is added
- Lead UAT and define structural design requirements needed to migrate all hierarchies and allocations into a new, business-user-friendly UI framework
- Serve as the formal Product approver for all Pricing and Packaging Operations cases, ensuring consistent data governance across all updates
- Drive change management to protect data integrity across quarterly and fiscal year transitions, keeping key partners (CSG, Finance, Sales, DET) informed of any changes
System-based Data management & Forecast Alignment (Org62 CRM)
- Define and maintain Product Allocation fields in Org62 CRM to support accurate ACV splits across products & accurate specialized seller forecasting & reporting
- Lead data execution for Product as a part of the annual Go-For-Growth (G4G) process in partnership with the Specialization Sales and Territory Ops — including user testing, approvals, and driving the multi-month effort to map new fiscal year APM changes across product and industry verticals
New Product Introduction & Complex Bundle Allocation
- As part of the NPI process, ensure all new SKUs are properly positioned across multi-tiered product structures and correctly mapped at the time of each monthly product launch
MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS
- Education & Experience: Bachelor's degree in Business Analytics, Operations, Finance, or a related field; 8+ years of experience in Business Operations, Sales Operations, or data governance; 3+ years leading teams with a track record of successfully managing and scaling processes
- Technical Skills: Strong SQL and Snowflake skills required; comfortable working with complex data workflows, transformation logic, and large databases
- Cross-Functional Leadership: Excellent communication and interpersonal skills with a proven ability to collaborate across Product, Data Engineering, and Finance in a fast-paced enterprise environment
- Growth Mindset & Autonomy: Self-motivated and collaborative, with strong influencing skills, intellectual curiosity, and a willingness to approach problems with an open mind in a constantly evolving environment
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Background in StratOps, Business Operations, or a Business Analyst role with exposure to complex data and systems
- Familiarity with software revenue recognition principles and how CRM configurations connect to corporate finance requirements
- Experience leading or partnering on a transition from manual tracking tools (e.g., Quip, Google Sheets) to automated, cloud-based data platforms

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Visa Sponsorship as a Data Operations Manager
Target employers with established data infrastructure teams
Companies with large-scale data pipelines, in finance, healthcare, and tech, regularly sponsor Data Operations Managers because replacing experienced candidates is costly. These employers have existing H-1B sponsorship processes and legal infrastructure already in place.
Frame your degree as directly tied to the role
H-1B approval requires proving the position is a specialty occupation. A degree in information systems, computer science, or data engineering maps cleanly to this role. If your degree is adjacent, document how your coursework directly supports data operations responsibilities.
Highlight cross-functional scope in your resume
Employers sponsoring H-1Bs want roles that justify the cost. Emphasizing your responsibility over data pipelines, governance frameworks, and cross-team coordination signals the complexity USCIS expects to see in a sponsored specialty occupation position.
Use the H-1B lottery timeline to plan your job search
H-1B registrations open in March with an October start date. If you miss the lottery, ask employers about cap-exempt options or L-1 visa transfers if you're currently employed internationally by a U.S.-affiliated company.
Australian citizens should ask about the E-3 visa
The E-3 visa is available only to Australian citizens and has no lottery. It's a strong alternative for Data Operations Managers, with faster timelines and lower employer cost than the H-1B. Many employers unfamiliar with E-3 will sponsor once explained.
Browse sponsorship-confirmed roles on Migrate Mate
Not every job posting discloses sponsorship eligibility upfront. Migrate Mate filters specifically for employers willing to sponsor, saving you the time of applying to roles that won't move forward for international candidates regardless of qualifications.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Data Operations Manager role qualify for H-1B sponsorship?
Yes, Data Operations Manager is a strong H-1B visa specialty occupation candidate. USCIS requires the role to normally require at least a bachelor's degree in a specific field, information systems, computer science, data engineering, or a closely related discipline all satisfy this. Employers should document the technical complexity of the role, including oversight of data pipelines, quality frameworks, and team coordination, to support the petition.
What degree does a Data Operations Manager need for visa sponsorship?
Most sponsoring employers require a bachelor's degree in information systems, computer science, data engineering, or business information technology. Degrees in adjacent fields like statistics or mathematics may qualify if paired with directly relevant work experience. Some employers accept a combination of a two-year degree plus substantial experience under the three-for-one equivalency rule USCIS allows for specialty occupations.
Are Australian citizens eligible for a different visa for this role?
Yes. Australian citizens can apply for the E-3 visa, which covers specialty occupations identical to the H-1B but without a lottery and with faster employer processing. Data Operations Manager qualifies under the same specialty occupation framework. The E-3 is renewed in two-year increments with no cap on renewals, making it a practical long-term option. Browse E-3-eligible roles on Migrate Mate.
How likely is H-1B approval for a Data Operations Manager?
Approval rates for operations and data management roles are generally strong when the petition clearly documents technical requirements and degree relevance. The bigger variable is the H-1B lottery, in recent years, selection rates have been around 20 to 25 percent, so many qualified candidates aren't selected. Employers filing for the first time or without legal support sometimes face higher RFE rates around specialty occupation documentation.
Can I find Data Operations Manager jobs that sponsor visas on Migrate Mate?
Yes. Migrate Mate is built specifically for international candidates and filters for employers willing to sponsor work visas, including H-1B and E-3 visa. Rather than sorting through hundreds of postings with no sponsorship disclosure, Migrate Mate surfaces roles where employers have already confirmed they'll work with international candidates, which is particularly useful for Data Operations Manager positions where sponsorship eligibility isn't always listed.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored Data Operations Manager jobs?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
